IBKR Launches Lite in Singapore: How Will This Drive Growth?

Interactive Brokers IBKR launches its IBKR Lite plan in Singapore, offering investors in the country a commission-free way to trade U.S. stocks and ETFs around the clock. This is another step taken by the brokerage firm to expand its product suite and the reach of its services globally.

This zero-commission trading plan in Singapore complements Interactive Brokers’ existing IBKR Pro pricing plan. Clients will be allowed to switch between the Lite and Pro plans at any time, depending on their trading needs.

IBKR has been continuously making efforts to diversify its product suite to expand globally. This and the firm’s efforts to develop proprietary software to automate broker-dealer functions have been aiding top-line growth.

Over the last five years (2019-2024), the company’s total net revenues witnessed a compound annual growth rate of 21.8%, with the upward momentum continuing in the first half of 2025.

Given Interactive Brokers’ technological superiority, its revenues are expected to continue to improve in the quarters ahead, supported by higher client acquisitions. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the company’s 2025 and 2026 revenues is $5.68 billion and $6.03 billion, indicating year-over-year growth of 8.8% and 6.2%, respectively.
